Says “no comments” when there are comments

    Hi there-
    I posted awhile back on this and never got it resolved so i’m desperately trying again.

    I use WP 2.8.5 on Firefox with Connections Theme and am hosted at Bluehost.

    Awhile back, I imported my old blog over. The problem is ONLY with all the imported posts – any new posts since then are fine.

    Each imported post says ‘no comments’ even though that when you click on each post and scroll down you can see there ARE comments. So I guess it’s some disconnect w/ the ‘comments’ ‘no comments’ and ‘number of comments’ codes.

    Here’s an example of a ‘pre-import’ post with the problem:
    https://www.llworldtour.com/2007/11/01/locked-out/

    At the top it says NO comments and at the bottom it says NO RESPONSES, but then lists all the comments.

    I would SO appreciate any and all help.
    Thank you!
    Lisa

    Well, last night i stayed up until 2am…posting a comment to each ‘no comment’ post. So don’t worry about that query. Thanks again for the help!

    I’ve duplicated the solution on a few posts and it works on mine too, but I don’t have the patience to do it manually. Any chance someone can come up with a query to update?

    Thanks!

    There’s a script on the link below that should solve the problem you guys are having – without having to manually add and delete comments to each post.

    Meaning that if you took an export from WordPress 2.6.5 and tried importing it into a WordPress 2.8.4 or something like that, it may have caused that. I would also suggest trying the default theme again even though you did say you’ve done it before. When you do that, also deactivate all of your plugins.
